Book Giveaway! Pike Place Market Recipes

Even if you’ve never been to Seattle, you’ve probably heard about our famous Pike Place Market which sits in the center of downtown Seattle at the center of the food scene. With its famous seafood and locally grown produce, it is seven acres of wonderful ingredients and inspiration for the home cook. Cookbook author Jess Thomson has prowled the Market’s stalls, shops, restaurants, and purveyors to assemble 80 wonderful recipes that express all of the flavors of the Market.

I met Jess at a fancy blogger’s dinner (where the food was overwhelmingly good) and cajoled her and the hosts into giving me a copy of the book and a brand new Pike Place Market shopping bag to give away to one of our Cookus Subscribers.

The book and the bag – you’d love to have the pair, right? Here’s how to enter to win (Only ONE winner!):

1. Be a subscriber of Cookus Interruptus (we check!). Not a subscriber yet? Type your email address in the subscribe box in the uppermost right corner of the home page. Way up there where the blue social media icons are.

2. Be a friend on Cookus Interruptus facebook. Not our facebook friend? Easy. Go to the Cookus Facebook page and click the thumbs up “like”.

3. What’s your favorite item to purchase at the farmer’s market? Tell us in a comment. Yup! That’s you entry! Here’s mine: I truly enjoy visiting my friends from Skagit River Ranch who produce beef, pork, chicken and eggs from well-loved animals. We use beef in very modest amounts and buying from thoughtful producers like Eiko and George is the best.

How about you? Type your answer as a comment to this post.

4. Contest ends at 5 pm on December 22. Check your email on the 23rd . The winners will be chosen by random.org. If you don’t respond to your “winner” email within 48 hours, we will choose a new winner (tough love…).
